The Spanish tomato festival, La Tomatina, is the world's largest tomato fight.

The festival dates back to 1945, when two people at a carnival in Bunol, just outside Valencia, reportedly began hurling tomatoes at each other in a heated argument. The festival, which has officially been part of Spain's national heritage since 2002, takes place on the last Wednesday in August.
